Blizzard CEO Mike Morhaime confirmed on Thursday that Blizzard's Battle.net online service was hacked with email addresses, personal security question answers and authentication data stolen.
In a statement posted on the Blizzard website, Mike Morhaime said: "This week, our security team found an unauthorized and illegal access into our internal network here at Blizzard". The list of items illegally acquired by the breach includes email address, answers to user's personal security question plus "information relating to Mobile and Dial-In Authenticators.”

Blizzard will be releasing an update to Battle.net in the next few days that forces players to change their passwords if they haven't already change their secret question and answer and prompt users to update their authentication software.
